Chapter 249: Stingy Husband!
"Saga." Gu Qibao nodded and said with a smile, "As long as you’re not jealous, actually, I kind of like this friend Johnson."
This liking is just a pure liking between friends, just like how a married person might still be a fan of a celebrity.
It’s just a simple admiration that has nothing to do with anything else.
Upon hearing this, Di Mingjue’s brows immediately furrowed, "You like him a lot?"
"Yes." Gu Qibao nodded, "He’s a prince, don’t you find that fascinating!"
"There’s nothing groundbreaking about that." Di Mingjue grumbled, "Just a tiny kingdom, a prince that’s not even as wealthy as I am, how is that anything special?"
"You can’t say it like that." Gu Qibao playfully stuck out her tongue, "It’s about the feeling, you get the feeling, right?"
Di Mingjue’s face darkened, "You’re feeling it?"
"Not really." Gu Qibao giggled, "Johnson is easy to get along with and even though he’s a prince, he doesn’t act all high and mighty. It’s quite refreshing."
"Heh." Di Mingjue let out a cold chuckle, seeing nothing agreeable or accessible about it.
He really didn’t see it at all.
As Gu Qibao chattered on, Di Mingjue’s face grew darker and darker, becoming so upset he didn’t even want to eat!
What does it feel like to hear your own wife consistently praising another man?
Embarrassing, stifling, it made him feel humiliated!
Despite the meal being served, Di Mingjue had lost all appetite. After all, this meal was hosted by Johnson. He didn’t have to eat!
He originally planned to bring Gu Qibao here to have fun and relax before they went back to prepare for the important exams.
Who would have thought he ended up creating a love rival for himself!
Moreover, a prince.
It gave Di Mingjue a sense of unbearable frustration.
Watching Gu Qibao’s excited demeanor, Di Mingjue spoke dismissively, "Gu Qibao, do you wish you married this prince instead of me?"
Gu Qibao paused for a moment, then her eyes narrowed with a smirk, "Yes, you are so smart."
Di Mingjue was so angry he could smoke, he glared at Gu Qibao, grinding his teeth, "You can! Why not go find him!"
Having said that, he actually stood up, tossed a pile of money at the front desk, and left.
He felt really upset. He had done so much for Gu Qibao, had considered every detail for her.
He had once been extremely moved by her words, but now it seemed like all of that was for nothing!
The green-behind-the-ears prince had enraptured her, and she had the audacity to sing his praises in front of him!
In what way did he fall short of that prince? Looks? Wealth?
He wasn’t lacking in either of those, okay?
On an international scale, he couldn’t claim to be number one, but he was definitely a top-tier figure.
His Empire was a great and powerful nation. What was a small prince from C Country in comparison!
Di Mingjue literally walked away, leaving Gu Qibao somewhat caught off guard.
Before having the chance to speak, he had already left. Was he throwing a tantrum because she insulted him?
Was admitting jealousy that shameful?
Was praising his wife’s superiority a lack of face?
She knew in Di Mingjue’s heart, she was not superior at all. He lied through his teeth when he said that she was the best in his heart.
The best my ass!
Would it be better if no one was interested in her in C Country and everyone was scared of her?
Gu Qibao felt frustrated.
Di Mingjue was really annoying and hateful!
It was at this moment that Johnson arrived. He saw Gu Qibao sitting by herself at the dining table, looking dazed and disheartened, her face full of discontent, and the untouched food on the table except for the unappetizing melted ice cream dish.
"Qibao, what’s wrong?" Johnson walked over, asking with care and tenderly, "You look upset, did you quarrel with your husband? Or did he bully you?"
"No!" Gu Qibao pouted unhappily, "He’s just a petty guy!"
Petty, petty, and hateful petty husband!
